“Reading some other reviews I felt bound to leave my own. I am not swayed by comments to the effect of "this podcast does not live up to the name 'Scientific American..." Who cares about your "expectations?" The measure of any podcast is, "Do I enjoy listening to it?" I do. The subject matter covers a broad range and is well presented. It is a convenient length and is definitely presented in a way that makes the material accessable to lay listeners.

Don't get me wrong, I am just of the opinion that fundamentalism is an anachronism, but I was suprised at what I interpreted as a passive agressive stance the podcast takes on this issue. I am not sure if I want to say "You go, boy!" or "Gosh, do you really have to make light of those old-timey beliefs?"”Read full review »

There is also a light hearted short segment where...”Read full review »
